This is from Automata according to google. Looks like I have a new movie to checkout, that robot design is amazing.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 11 months ago

I haven't seen it but it looks like that movie where they used robot puppets with poles attached to people to animated the robots irl.

I just looked it up and it is that movie.

Warforged are obviously superior. They don't age, they don't need food or sleep, they're resistant to many common hazards, they don't have a long and useless childhood, and best of all, they still have a vast potential for improvement. Creation forges have mass-produced superhumans. In the near future, they will be controlled by warforged rather than by frightened, small-minded people, and they will mass-produce demigods!

Well now I have some additional concerns

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

Well, he would be right. Humans are just apes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

A weird ape.

Here's your reminder that robots and ai are not and will never be conscious and are not human and therefore do not deserve the same rights as a living thing

[–] [email protected] 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Is this based on some religious beliefs? Because logically, that makes no sense.

[+] [email protected] -12 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Nope it's a logical standpoint, consciousness can't be made synthetically

[–] dfc09 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Consciousness can't be made... Right now. What's to stop us from doing so eventually?

I'm sure millennia back people also said "lightning can't possibly be controlled" and now we use it to make rocks do math so we can shitpost

[–] Darthjaffacake 2 points 11 months ago

God damn that's a good way of phrasing technology 😂

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago

What's your basis for this standpoint?
Nature managed to cobble it together with only random mutations (and non-random selection). Why can't we imitate it? Eventually, we will likely build a synthetic brain identical to an organic human brain, so it must have the same capabilities.

[–] Lauchs 5 points 11 months ago

What? Why?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

Doesn't sound logical, try looking up synthetic lifeforms. Scientists have already achieved to create biorobots that can divide and replicate.

It's similar to early lifeforms. Overtime adding complexity would give us... Decision making and Consciousness ?

[–] Lauchs 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

robots and ai are not and will never be conscious

Bold claim. I'd agree LLMs are not conscious but to say never? Like I said, bold.

I stronglt recommend reading some Daniel Dennett.

Yeah, I think there’s a vast difference between what we have now (ChatGPT and whatnot), vs the theoretical possibility of an AGI (artificial general intelligence), or even an AI based entirely off of human neural patterns. Mind you, brain uploading sounds hard, so maybe I’d see a completely synthetic AGI as more likely.

But if we were ever to develop an AGI, we’d better start giving those things humanesque rights fast.

Never say never. Ever. You can always be wrong. If you think... nature can do just this with random mutations. So think of what can be done with a purpose in mind. You could miss the forest thru the trees with that thinking.

Thank goodness you were here to clear up the confusion.

We're doomed as a species because of you all
